Couturier dealing with sprained shoulder

Flyers captain Sean Couturier is dealing with what appears to be a sprained shoulder. The team has not made an official announcement on his prognosis but a tweet by Kevin Kurz, The Athletic’s Flyers beat reporter, relayed the status this morning (April 4).

Sean Couturier has a sprained shoulder, I'm told. He's day to day, as John Tortorella said yesterday. Not sure if he's practicing today but it appears that what he's dealing with isn't overly serious.

Couturier was injured in the first period of Monday’s game against the New York Islanders after crashing heavily into the boards.
